8616. 'And Joshua decimated Amalek and his people' means lessening the power of those steeped in falsity arising from interior evil. This is clear from the meaning of 'decimating' as lessening the power; and from the representation of 'Amalek and his people' as those steeped in falsity arising from interior evil, dealt with above in 8593.
